Well Now is your chance. The Hunt is a event designed for those characters who seek the thrills of battle as well as those who are skilled trackers.
The scene is: Qa'iit calls upon all those whom have said they would come to his call and any else who would head his word. He has been offered a large bounty, which he would gladly share, from one individual by the name Ri'Auroran, in turn this bounty asks for the capture of one certain individual wanted by the Guards of Auridon for charges of murder. Qa’iit with his many friends spots this individual in town and attempt to apprehend the devious fellow and fail, but not without leaving one good gash in their arm. Now it is up to you to follow the blood trail through the forest of Auridon and discover where this conspiring menace has fled. In and inventive, monitored way that will double fold the interactivity for RP characters with the world around them. Just how? I will get to that in a minute. All the while your character can ponder:

”Why would Qa’iit rally such a force for just one person?”…
”What else is there I’m missing from this plot?”…
”If Qa’iit is taking such precautions, what in Nirn are you up against?”…

Your character and groups of your fellows will be grouped together and tasked to search the woods in pursuit of the murderer, but the actions of one individual are only one small part to a much grander insidious plot. Will you have what it takes to stand your ground against what you might face? Or will your resolve crumble, letting you hope one, resolute enough still has the strength to carry you? Either way it will strive to be a RP environment that all many should aspire to be a part of.

((More information to come, its all plotted out. I'm only waiting for the gears and cogs to align to the right moment that this plan will be set in motion. This is but a spark of advertisement that will ignite the flame of this event. Let me know what you think in the comments, I'll answer what questions I can but will be posting the rest of this plot soon. I hope to provide our members with an experience that will fill them with glee at the interactions they can have, as well as stressing character development. This event may not be for everyone, feel free to post below while I work on the rest of the show.))

Alright time for me t answer the sever important questions Where, when, what, why, who, how.

Why: I am trying to provide an event that is true to the medium that we RP in. Thought others enjoy having slightly interactive stories through message boards and Forums. Some enjoy being in the moment having live interactions with characters and that's what makes MMO-RP what it is, is the fact that you are forced to make in the moment decisions that time can be a large factor on. This is usually absent from Forum RP where individuals take turns spinning their tales. I am not trying to belittle either form or RP. The thing MMO-RP is that you are now submerged in a world where actions can take place independent of your presence, everything is bound by that force that connects us all, time. With this event I will try and embody that perspective of our RP and give members a true feel for it in game.

Where: Auridon, somewhere. Depending on the number of individuals that pledge to come it may either take the whole island or just a small portion.


When: Soon-ish, as that photo-shopped picture stated, summer some time.


What: Layers of fog, guess how many are in the second picture...I had nothing else to say to this.

Who: Officers of the guild, an outside group you wouldn't know about, and me.

How: The actual real question.

So the system will work like this. We will have the intro events, the attack on the murderer. Then will will pair up and venture through the forest in search of this blood trail. You need not worry about Trying to RP your own knowledge of the trail as officers will be standing by to provide that experience for you. In what I call the Node system.

Using this map as a reference notice the large starting arrow located in town. This would be our metaphorical start to the hunt. The beginning sequence happens here, then we are loosed in the general direction of the escapee. The smaller arrows represent nodes. Each node will be tied to a certain tirggered event for any character fortunate enough to discover. These triggered events will be basically an interesting clue in the landscape your character might discover. For example: Lets say you're in search of the murderer and you walk over one of these nodes. One of the officers standing by watching your location from the map will call it out. Then a description of the scene you have stumbled across will be provided to you either in a whisper or on a sheet with node numbers. There will also be an end point tho the hunt that leads to the ending half of the story, which you may or may not be able to effect the ending of. Either way its a race against the clock, and if you aren't there to perhaps enter a Gods forsaken cave to search after this murderer, could you forgive yourself if something terrible happened? The second half of the story I won't reveal now but it may just be something along those lines, but that is where the hunt will lead to the second story area. Then after those events you're free to stay or go as you please.

@[Billy]: while searching the woods continues on his path south of the city.
@[Off-icer-watcin-u]((Hey, Billy you have stumbled across Node #23))
@[Billy]((Awesome! I'm having so much fun!))
@[Off-icer-watchin-u]((You better be! here is what the node is))
@[Off-icer-watchin-u]: You come across a trail of blood heading what would appear to be south east, based on an odd smear on a leaf. From the looks of it the trail is fresh, little doubt of that. There are humanoid foot prints accompanying this trail. Thought the dry earth makes it difficult to make any guess as to who's footprints they are for certain.
@[Billy]: Waves his hands in the air, gesturing for his fellows to come:"This one has found something!" He cried in a tone filled with anticipation. His heart racing and breaths sporadic.

This is a more accurate representation of the map, as there will be many nodes in the area. Though you have to be caution some of the nodes are designed to lead you astray. The nodes will be placed in areas that your might be naturally drawn to, like abandoned buildings, and particular things in the road; so, in summary. Us officers will take one for the team and provide you with an experience that you will hopefully find enjoyable through additional interaction in the world.

Let me know what you think with this.

((OOoo I tingles :lol: but Sylva no come to your call, you are dead to him since you left the Clan - no more hugs for you ;) jkn ((HUGS)) but he still no come hahaa))

A murderer on the loose?? This one will aid you Qa'iit, for she has the skills to bring the bastard down.

Kish'na Jatani is a seasoned huntress; she has tracked man and beast across Tamriel as their scent and markings left behind have always lead this one to them.. You have only to call, and this one will join you in this quest.

(( This seems like fun! Kish'na would be perfect for this story, let me know if I can help in any way or lead a team if need be :D ))

((Oooh count me in!))

This one is not much of a tracker, and is only now learning how to properly use a bow, but she is smart and will aid in any way she can.

My sword is ready to strike upon this monster, and I will aid the best way I can.

((Count me in! :D ))

I pledged myself to peace, and catching this murderer will be one step closer to that goal. I will be there.

(( This looks so cool! Definitely gonna go! ))

((This seriously is going to be a blast!))

While I'd rather be hunting daedra, this murderer must be struck down and I'd be happy to lend my bow to the cause.

Shere'Khaann is, of course, very much interested in this :)

I will come. I have tracking skills in my blood, and plus the coin sounds too good to pass up.

(I am in love with this idea. Can't wait.)
